General Notes: Husband - Adam Specht


He came to New Berlin, Union County, Pennsylvania, in 1791, when he was a boy of seven, and was reared to manhood there. He married and settled at Beavertown where, at that time, there were but a few houses. For many years he carried on a pottery business in the town. During the War of 1812, he served as a corporal in Capt. Henry Miller's company, and on November 10, 1814, he was at Marcus Hook, with the regiment commanded by Lieutenant-Colonel George Weirick.
